    Today I noticed a red 360 spider going North on El Camino Real turning right to downtown Burlingame near Howard Ave. The 355 & I were going South bound El Camino.

    Passed a silver California heading north on 280 behind Palo Alto today around 4.30 today. :)

    For some reason it's been a long time since I spotted a Ferrari. :-(

    Red Dogd Viper RT/10 by St. Rose of Lima Church at around noon today.

    Red Ferrari Mondial Cabriolet by the Reno/Tahoe International Airport shortly after spotting the Viper.

    White Bentley (Arnage?) Convertible getting off the freeway by Damonte Ranch. Not sure which model; it was a two door convertible, not a Continental GT...much larger.

    Black Bentley Continental GTC heading up Arrowcreek Parkway.

    Black Bentley Continental Flying Spur in Fieldcreek.

    Blue Lamborghini Gallardo parked on the side of South Virginia Street just passed Wal-Mart. Not sure if it was broken down or what.

    Today (Sunday) The 355 & I were going S on B street San Mateo. Saw a black 458 Italia going N. He gave me a short honk (assuming it was a he). Could not see the driver.

    The 458 was possibly one of the cars returning from LA after the Ferrari Owners Group Charity Road Rally. Michael, you should of joined us. It was a grand time had by all. We are all excited to see F-cars being driven. The excitement is increased exponentially when there are 50 F-cars driving together.

    Today saw a black 360 going East on 4th Ave. Around 8pm. The Ferrari & I were going west to the El Camino.
    Making my Blockbuster run. No Netflix for me.
    I wonder if any of these folks are F-chatters?

    I was being followed by an orange Tesla Roadster Sport on Double R Boulevard on my way home from work. There was a thunderstorm to the southeast (direction we were traveling) and when he passed me, a flash of lightning lit up the sky by the eastern foothills. Looked neat in contrast to the orange Tesla...especially considering that it's an electric car. :)

    ATesla can accelerate very fast!! I really dig them. No timing belts to change! I hope they make it. Love to see an American Company make a cutting edge product.

    Yes, they do accelerate very quickly. I really like them too; especially in orange with black rims (like this one)...and I usually HATE orange cars.

    GB. I saw that lotus about 2 months ago. It lives in the subdivision at the top of Zolezi. I talked to the guy - not a car guy

    Figures; he wasn't the best driver in the world (could barely keep it in a lane). Beautiful car though.

    Hope you're doing well Tony!

    Today as the 355 & I were cruising South on Laurel St. in San Carlos I spotted a sweet Lambo. Parked on the west side of the St.
    I turned around a couple of blocks down and snapped some pics. When I got home and looked at them it was all black. Too dark. Flash couldn't cut it. I suspect he was in some high end Italian joint.
    That thing is the epitome of Exotic!

    Saturday:
    Rode with XSSSIVE in his Ferrari California to the Italian Festival. We drove up to Caughlin Ranch to meet frefan and his F50 to caravan down to the Italian Festival. On the way up there, we spotted a red Maserati Cambiocorsa Spyder going down McCarran by Skyline. Later that afternoon, I saw the same car on South Virginia Street by Wal-Mart. There were a total of 9 Ferraris (including the California and F50) on display at the Italian Festival. However, I don't count those as "spots" since it was planned.

    Sunday
    White Nissan GT-R early in the morning (about 7:00) on Damonte Ranch Pkwy getting onto the freeway.

    White Ferrari 430 Scuderia downtown by the Italian Festival (not part of the Ferrari display).

    Black Bentley Continental GT on Virginia Street right by the Reno arch.
